Magnetic resonance has emerged as the leading technology for wireless power transfer over distance, and as the technology evolves, companies looking to take solutions to market will rely on standards to streamline development, reduce costs, and accelerate adoption. A number of organizations are developing specifications, and as a holder of the foundational patents for highly resonant wireless power transfer over distance, these standards efforts will rely on WiTricity technology as part of the backbone for the technical specifications.

As part of our efforts to increase market adoption and time-to-market for our customers, WiTricity is an active member of the following organizations:

WiTricity has been involved as a leader in the development of SAE work-in-progress (WIP) J2954 for wireless charging of EVs and PHEVs, and has been the chair of several of the working groups associated with J2954. The J2954 group members include most of the major automakers and Tier 1 suppliers.

SAE International is a global association committed to being the ultimate knowledge source for the engineering profession. By uniting over 127,000 engineers and technical experts, we drive knowledge and expertise across a broad spectrum of industries. We act on two priorities: encouraging a lifetime of learning for mobility engineering professionals and setting the standards for industry engineering.

ISO is an independent, non-governmental international organization with a membership of 163 national standards bodies. Through its members, it brings together experts to share knowledge and develop voluntary, consensus-based, market relevant International Standards that support innovation and provide solutions to global challenges.

The aim of STILLE is to compile recommendations for the definition of interoperable wireless charging systems to finalize the international standardization in 2017/18 and to enable the availability of interoperable wireless charging systems in the market from 2020 on.

AirFuel Alliance is an association dedicated to building a global wireless charging ecosystem based on best in industry inductive, resonant and future wireless charging technology.
